摘要
In the present society, energy crisis and environment pollution are extraordinarily severe with the burning of fossil fuels. Hydrogen generation by photocatalytic water splitting would present a promising method to solve the issue. Recently, a series of two-dimensional MPS_3(M = Fe, Mn, Ni, Cd, Zn) and MPSe_3(M = Fe, Mn) nanosheets have been prepared in experiments.~([1]) Computations reveal that these 2D monolayers could also be obtained in experiments by exfoliating the corresponding bulk. By using hybrid density functional computations, we investigated the band gaps, band edge positions and optical absorption of these monolayers, and predicted that they are promising candidates for photo-hydrolytic catalysts. Moreover, via deformation potential theory, we calculated the carrier mobility, and disclosed that MnPSe_3 monolayer is the most promising photocatalyst for water splitting under visible light with high carrier mobility.~([2])
